SIPCC aktuell
What’s up
The Executive Committee is pleased to announce that Dr. Zehra Erşahin has taken over as interim president following the recent resignation of Dr. Dominiek Lootens.
Erşahin, in taking on this role, emphasized the goal of the EC is to “establish a collaborative and participatory approach to the role of president, one that will guide SIPCC into its next stage of growth.”
Lootens, citing personal and professional reasons, stepped down immediately following the 2024 Seminar in Limburg. “Dominiek led SIPCC with dedication and vision for our shared mission. His tenure marked a transformative period, during which he built upon the foundations and visions laid by many, particularly Helmut Weiss and Klaus Temme. We’re grateful for his leadership and wish him the best for his future endeavours.”
“I am excited about the future direction of SIPCC and know that, with everyone’s collaboration and shared vision, we will continue to advance the mission of SIPCC,” Erşahin concluded.
New elections will take place at the annual general meeting at the end of 2025.

‘Seelsorge in einer verwundbaren und verletzenden Welt: interkulturelle und interreligiöse Praxis’
Wenn wir als Seelsorgerinnen und Seelsorger versuchen, die Verwundungen in unserer Welt und in unserer Arbeit in multi-religiösen und inter-kulturellen Gesellschaften zu verstehen, nehmen wir oft nicht wahr, wie auch wir selbst auf vielfältige Weise zu Verwundungen beitragen. Das heißt, wir müssen unser Sein (Wurzeln) und unserer Zugehörigkeit (persönliche und kollektive Identitäten) in unserer Praxis reflektieren und offen bleiben für Selbstveränderung, um die Herausforderungen in der heutigen verwundbaren und verletzenden Welt anzunehmen.

10 Oct 2025Theme: Symposium and Celebration: 30 Years SIPCC and RASPuS
‘Care in a Wounded and Wounding World: Interreligious and Intercultural Practices’
In our earnest desire as care providers to understand the woundedness in the world in which we live and our practice of care in inter-faith and intercultural societies, we run the risk of losing sight of how we also contribute in multiple ways to the woundedness in which we live. That means that we need deep search for our being (roots), belonging (personal and collective identities), and becoming reflective practitioners who remain open to self-transformation to face the challenges in today’s wounding and wounded world.
